1. Don't pick up the phone - You know he's only calling 'cause he's drunk and alone.2. Don't let him in - You have to kick him out again.3. Don't be his friend - You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the morning.And if you're under him, you ain't gettin' over him. ♥

it seems a long way from Copenhagen to Billund, do you think the teams will drive?

Copenhagen --> Billund --> Brussels

do you think the teams will fly from Billund to Brussels?

As far as I am aware, Denmark and Belgium do not share a border, and so driving would require teams to go through Germany, and possibly also the Netherlands. I have no idea how long the drive would take - but TAR doesn't often have teams drive through a country without any tasks there (although there are exceptions).

I'm thinking there is a flight at some point...

Did I really just watch that? Possibly the most bizarre TAR preview clip ever!I'm confused about the Legoland task. There must be something more to it than 'Ride the teacups'.

Perhaps the biggest thing we can gauge from the teams being in Legoland is that they don't take a train to Brussels. Billund is a long way from the nearest railway station, but it does have its own airport. Sun Air flies from Billund Airport (near Legoland) to Brussels three times a day, but here's where it gets interesting.

We strongly suspect that 6th July was our filming date, and the three flights were as follows:

0725 > 0850 (Unlikely that they caught this one)1225 > 1400 (Possibly intended, but this flight is listed as being cancelled on the 6th and 7th of July)1750 > 1915 (Likely)

The only sighting we have in Brussels is a Facebook post timestamped at 10.06pm after teams had checked in. Though I'm not sure if this is local time or Peach's Facebook time..

p.s. Since they're racing to Belgium on the 2 episodes of TAR 19, do you think that the 3d animated film, The Adventures of Tintin will boost the box office earnings worldwide after showing those 2 episodes?
